Fatah al-Islam

Fatah al-Islam is a Sunni Islamist and jihadist group formed in 2006 in the Nahr al-Bared refugee camp in Lebanon. Originating with Fatah al-Intifada, it split from the group and fought against the government in 2007, leading to the death of its leader Shaker al-Abssi and the destruction of the group. Many of its remaining fighters joined the Free Syrian Army, Islamic State, or al-Nusra Front, leaving it with only around 200 fighters.
